What after SSC/HSC

What after SSC/HSC

Yesterday one of my neighbours asked me "My son's SSC exams are over now, can you please let me know what he should do after SSC?". What after SSC/HSC? this is one of the common question being asked by parents and students who want to develop career in today's world where without a proper education you are no where. Lakhs of students appear for SSC every year and this question looms large on their minds as well as their parents.

If students or parents do not get proper guidance nr come under the influences of what others do and not then under such wrong career decision they end up with mess and spoils child career. Let us see what are this wrong influence career decisions which leads to spoiling a Childs career.

Career chosen based on what others say: Here the influencing factors are relatives, friends and neighbours. Just like my neighbours asked me many other parents asks to family friends, neighbours and relatives which may not be always correct for your child. What answer parents receives are normally "My son did engineering and now he is earnings handsome salary", "After SSC my nephew joined Computers field as there is a big demand of Computer in future so you can take up a course in Computers" etc. I am not saying don’t ask any one about your Childs career but the thing is do not force your child to do what others are saying. After all it is your child who is going to face the future situation based on his/her decision. So find out the right interest and aptitude of your child.

Career choice based on friends choice: After spending 10 years of schooling many students feel that they remain with their friends forever, so they intend to join the career what the friends are going to do. But in this case the career chosen may not be suited as the level of the student is not up to the required mark.

Wrong Notions: People still under wrong notions even in this fast expanding world, they think that Medical and Engineering studies as highly prestigious. So many times it has been seen that parents want their child to take up Science after SSC irrespective of whether he/she would be able to cope up with its syllabus or not. Even students getting low percentage in SSC are admitted to science colleges. This results into a failure and then dropouts and finally switching over to either Commerce or Arts stream.

Choosing a career is a multi-step process. Before concluding from your side try to find out from your child about his/her best aptitude, interests. If you are still not able to satisfy then attend seminars for career guidance after SSC/HSC which many schools arranges for their students or even many private organizations arranges in their suburb. go and attend those seminars. Try to meet teachers as they are the best one who knows about your Childs skills and capacity. Finally don’t hesitate to go in for career counseling, as it will be beneficial for your child in the later stage of life to pursue or go in for higher studies.

Most of the students I have seen they go in for Engineering as a career. But they are confused as to start the career with Diploma or HSC. I would suggest them if engineering is to be done, then going directly to diploma after SSC is good option. Engineers having diploma background have an extra advantage in career as they spends 6 years in engineering field as compared to HSC + Engineer who spends 4 years in engineering field. Also after HSC, getting into better engineering course is very tough as it requires very high percentage in HSC and then very good percentile in CET. And CET will be there for HSC students applying for engineering and is never going to be removed.

As compared, after diploma, if you have better percentage in last year, you get direct admission to 2nd year of engineering and thus you are saved from the dreadful 1st year of engineering which is considered as the toughest year in any engineering course because there is a drastic change in the pace of study from HSC to Engineering.

Let us have a helicopter view of various educational courses available to us after SSC/HSC. The list is not complete so readers are requested to take the help of some other sources information also like internet, career guidance seminars and career counselors etc.
